This card is just unfair and evil but nice to use considering its still legal.

amazing card, you just need card draws to get those cards in your hand and you're set.

hive mind in play, this, then tome scour, in your turn so that you draw last.

Because sometimes, you just want the combo out all ready.

Combos so flavourfully with hellcarver demon. For fun, using Hellcarver demon's effect, choose 3 swamps, unmake and barren glory ... and pray they don't have enchantment removal haha...

This and Necropotence are probably the two most hardcore black cards I know of. When you see one, the game is probably going to end pretty soon. They both cost triple black. It must mean something.

Next turn, draw Necropotence, to draw 4, then cast Black Lotus and Laboratory Maniac.

This is one of my favorite black cards. The art and flavor of this card is so awesome. However, it seems as though most of the comments are from people who have never actually used it before. Doomsday has a tendency to blow up in your face in actual game play LOL

Russian Roulette anyone? A fun but weird combo would be to play this when you have Killer Instinct in play and leave four of the following epic creatures in your library:
Emrakul, the Aeons Torn
Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre
Kozilek, Butcher of Truth
Progenitus
Darksteel Colossus
Blightsteel Colossus
And the fifth card you ask? Phage the Untouchable

You may set the order of your first "bullet" but your deck will soon be shuffled as each epic card is shuffled back in.
If you want to give your opponent some of the fun have Lurking Predators in play too. A card to prevent your card draw would be good too e.g. Necropotence or Possessed Portal. Temporal Aperture could be useful
to benefit from the eldrazi "when cast" abilities too.
P.S. - I'm not suggesting this for competitive play!

This card is already amazing, but just imagine what it will be like when the MIRACLE cards show up in Avacyn Restored.

And on my fourth turn I say: "I think I will take 4 extra turns now..."

Laboratory Maniac's Doomsday device!

Also, this card has its official theme song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DzyKSyLavUY

I would say the best thing to use with Laboratory Maniac is to pile down a bunch of Gitaxian Probes and Street Wraiths.

Once you draw one, if you've got more than 10 life, you win. Unless they bolt you. That'd suck.

Usually, this will just plain win you the game. You could get Silly with Mirror of Fate constantly recycling cards to have a stacked deck, but you shouldn't need more than 5 cards of your choice in order to achieve victory. The price (half your life, your library, and your graveyard) may seem high, but unless you're staring down mill, it's essentially nothing because you should win.
